Condition report:
Only a very small number of Leica M4 cameras have been made in Midland, Canada. This is one of them. The camera has a black chrome finish and has been made in 1974. On top it is engraved: Ernst Leitz Canada ltd. Midland, Canada. Not to be mistaken for a black paint variant, this has a black chrome finish like the later M4-2 and M4-P cameras. Nevertheless a very rare Canada production M4 body of which only a few hundred exists with the top plate marked as such.
the camera comes in a good condition with some regular sings of previous use. We see some marks and scratches, mostly to bottom plate. obvious strap wear. Some general user marks. Vulcanite mostly intact, few very small spots of vulcatite loss from opening bottom plate.
The camera is ready for use. Shutter is good at all speeds. Smooth transport. Nice bright finder, small fungal mark remained after internal cleaning, but not seen in general use, only upon close inspection with strong flashlight and only when viewed from the right angle. The rangefinder is well adjusted. backdoor with chrome ISO dial. An interesting collectors item and a great camera for use as well. (body only, lens not included)

Main specs of the Leica M4:
The M4's viewfinder shares the same framelines as the M2: 35mm, 50mm, 90mm and 135mm. Shutter speeds range from 1s to 1/1000th, bulb mode is present. There is no internal electronics, no battery required for its operation. Selftimer and frameline selector levers on front of the body.The most important upgrade on the M4 was the new style of loading, advancing and rewinding film. This new way of loading film without separate take up spool was regarded much quicker. A new advance crank was designed which can be recognized by its partly plastic tip. Rewinding the film could now be done with the angled rewind lever, in stead of the old style knob of the M2/3, which took much more time.
Leica M4 variants:
Around 60.000 Leica M4 bodies were made, which is quite low compared to the 220.000 of the M3. The standard M4 was taken out of production when the Leica M5 camera was released. Because the M5 camera had some issues which rumoredly almost killed Leica, they re-released the M4 again and named it the M4-2.This M4-2 camera was lacking a selftimer and has a slightly redesigned inside to make them more affordable to produce for Leica. Rumors say they made the camera with lower quality gears and parts, but this is not really true and it was and still is a beautiful quality camera.
After the M4-2 the M4-P was released, the P standing for Professional. The camera was also lacking a selftimer and was the first Leica M to feature 28mm lens framelines. The M4-P can be recognized by its large red dot Leica logo on the front of the body.
If you rather have a Leica M4 with built in light meter, the M6 is the perfect one for you but these are often double the price.
